Discharge Summaries
Send patients home with a summary they can read.
Alongside every SOAP note, CognIQ drafts a discharge summary written as a letter to the patient — what you found, what’s changing, and what happens next, in plain language. Edit it, translate it into the patient’s language, and email it to them without leaving the note.
What It Does
Written for the patient
A warm, jargon-free letter that walks through the visit: findings, medication changes, tests ordered, lifestyle advice and when to come back.
In the patient’s language
Translate the summary into Spanish, Hindi, Portuguese, Mandarin, Korean or Nigerian Pidgin, and switch back to English any time.
Emailed in one step
Tap the email icon and the summary goes to the patient’s address on file, in the language you’ve selected. No address yet? Enter it once and tap Save & send — it’s saved to the patient’s record for next time.
Edit, copy, push
Adjust the wording, copy it anywhere, or include it as a section when you push the note to your EHR.
How It Works
Finish the visit — the discharge summary is drafted with the note.
Review and edit it in its own card below the SOAP note.
Pick a language to translate it.
Email it to the patient, or push it to the chart with the note.
